This one really soars and rivals 5/7/78 as my favorite.

Very powerful version with fun jamming and a raucous ending from a show I neglected for too long

If nothing else check out jam from 4:10-6:31 it's insane. Recording is mostly Jerry, Keith and Phil but it works.

For Bobby slide fans, great ripping version from their killer first set since Egypt. Jed--->Straw are fire!

Man I love this 'silky' version. Jerry plays about 50% less notes than your typical CRS. Que this one up and melt away in your chair.

Most up-tempo CRS of the year. Jerry means business during the outro!
